 tibia, loiijjer than segments 2 and I? togetiier ; short apical hindtihial spur about 

 oiie-tliird the length of long one, this a little longer than second tarsal segment. 



Wings, Hi>i>frmle. Forewing : distal margin not convex, fixintly scalloped ; 



u black basal })atch at inner margin, separate from the black inner-marginal 

 antemediiin j)atch ; this hitter reduced in size, triangnlar ; a double line between 

 the two patches, two other lines more widely apart, converging behind, the 

 proximal one confluent with the antemedian ])atch before reaching inner margin, 

 the other reaching jjatch at its njjper proximal corner; no stigma; discal lines 

 forming at costal margin a sluirjily marked semicircle, proximal discal lines 

 consjiicuous, fourth line also so beyond M' ; brown subapical costal jiatch reduced, 

 indistinctly covered with a postdiscal band which extends from hinder margin 

 frontad, posterior portion of this band corresponding to the double patch of 

 nateUitia, but being much broader ; greyish marginal border dentate, including a 

 dentate submarginal line ; a consj)icuous \n\K line from lower angle of cell along 



M' to near distal edge of wing, vein M- also buff, except at base and apex. 



Hindwiug : stigma represented by a minute vestigial dot ; black discal area 

 extended to M^ and abdominal margin, interspace between it and black su])margiiia] 

 l)and fawn-colour, witli two sharply marked lines ; black submarginal area 8C- — 

 M' narrower than in sntdlitia, not reaching costal margin, black sjiots M' — SM- 

 contiguous. 



Undi'rtfidi' brick red, ratlier brigliter tlian boily. Basal area of forewing j)ale 



drab-brown, blackish behind ; a discal line crossing subcostals at fork, brick red 

 in front, blackish behind, followed by traces of a second line ; a brown distal 



border, triangularly dilated behind R^, here nearly reaching first discal line. 



Hindwing drab-grey at base, three discal lines, second faint, a brown distal 

 border, which is dilated before middle. 



S. Tenth tergite acuminate, not very sharp, the exti'eme tip being rounded- 

 truncate. Clasper without ])atch of bristles on inner surface ; harpe (PI. XLVIII. 

 f. 3) of the sate/l/ti<i-ty\)e, but the horizontal part of ttie process broader and more 

 flat, resembling somewhat that of anchemolus, hook as in satcUifia. 

 Length of forewing : S , 48 mm.

S ? . Similar to small specimens of P/i. satellitia. Second and third segments 

 of abdomen with black lateral patch. First segment of hindtarsus in c? as long as ■ 



tibia and as segments 2 to 4 together, while it is much shorter in sati'llitia. j 



Forewing, above, more grey, icitltuut stigma ; costal semicircle at apex of cell very' 

 sharply marked, heavier than the first discal line ; apex more produced, the distal 

 margin being in front more concave than in satellitia ; a black subbasal })atch at 

 inner margin sejiaratc from the rliombiform submediau patch ; the latter obviously 

 produced basad at (SM'), the border darker thau the centre of the patch ; inner 

 edge of wing not pinkish. Hindwing : as in satellitia, no discal line from black
